We knew there wouldn't be any whine -- they've been touting how quiet the new blower is all along.

Yes , all the new TVS eaton 4-lobe blowers are pretty quiet . The pitch and sound of the whine is completely different ....almost jet like @ WOT with a very high pitch whine quietly in the background . Youll know what I mean if u ever get the chance to hear one in person with the factory air box silencers removed ....a video just doesnt capture the sound u hear in real life .
